Miguel Torres Cordillera Carménère has its origin in the famous Terroir of Peumo in the Cachapoal Valley.

Founded in 1979, Miguel Torres is proud to be one of the first foreign wine companies to buy land in Chile and the first to build a winery.

In 1979 the Torres family purchased 100 hectares of vineyard in Maquehua, San Francisco Norte and Cordillera, together with a winery in the Curicó Valley. Miguel Torres brought with him his family’s long tradition of wine-making and over 140 years of company history. The Chilean Central Valley has an ideal climate for top quality viticulture. This Phylloxera-free region is dominated by the presence of the Andes, their peaks crowned with permanent snow.

The vineyard is on a foothill, on granite soils of colluvial origin with a clay loam texture and the presence of stones. It offers very good drainage and low fertility.

This is ideal for controlling vigour and obtaining very limited production of an excellent Carménère.

Enjoy Miguel Torres Cordillera Carménère alongside meat dishes, particularly red meats and stews. Alternatively, savour it alone as a way to unwind after a long day.

Producer’s Tasting Notes

Very intense colour. On the nose there is a wonderfully strong expression of the character of the Carménère variety (fruits of the forest, eucalyptus, and leather). It boasts toasted notes (bay and clove), liquorice, and black pepper. Very ample palate with rounded tannins. To finish, aromas of toasted bread and then spices ending in a long aftertaste.
